@SaltyPear86, First step would be to figure out what policies are enabled. Can you please share what you see when you go to your `brave://policy`? ---

Welcome to the digital prison. I have a good video to show everyone what awaits us. This has been going on for a while, but now it’s getting worse. They control EVERYTHING, not just your browsers. ---

I would do the following: **1)** In the Windows Registry Editor, check “_Computer\HKEY\_LOCAL\_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\BraveSoftware\Brave_” for a file/folder termed “ **ExtensionAllowList** ” and delete it. **2)** Restart Windows and see if it appears in the Windows registry again. If it doesn’t appear in the Windows registry now then: **1)** Go to `brave://policy` then ensure it is not showing here either **2)** Now, let’s ensure Brave allows you to enable **Secure DNS** Let’s go re-check RegEdit for same info: **1)** Go to Windows Group Policy Editor by searching for “_Edit Group Policy_” **2)** See if there’s a Brave section with the following path: ```auto Computer Configuration > Administrative Templates > Brave ``` **3)** If there is, find the “_Configure extension installation allow list_” Group Policy setting under _[Brave \> Extensions_] and set it to “Not Configured”. Should resolve this. _If the issue persists, then you’d have to find the source of the registry edit addition and remove it_ I hope this helps! ---
